What People Ate in the USSR — Is It Coming Back?
What did people actually eat in the USSR — and why are some of those habits starting to feel familiar again today?
In this video, I break down the real Soviet “food system”: queues, shortages, substitutions, canteens, and the staples that kept families going. Then I connect it to modern Russia — not with doom, but with evidence: shrinking choice, “replacement” products, recipe changes, and how people adapt when options narrow.
You’ll see:
-the real Soviet menu (not clichés) — what was daily food vs “holiday food”
-why queues and shortages happened (the system behind it)
-the 5 Soviet staples every family knew (and why they mattered)
-what feels similar today in Russia — and what’s still very different
-a practical way to spot when “the same product” isn’t really the same anymore
If you’ve ever wondered whether “Soviet life” is returning — this is the most honest answer I can give.
